Act of War: Direct Action is a graphically stunning and frighteningly plausible tale of suspense, international intrigue, and geopolitical military conflict. Through a techno-thriller story, this real-time strategy experience puts players squarely in control of counter-terrorist forces to defend cities of the world. As commander of a newly formed anti-terror military unit known as the Talon Task Force, players will need to recruit combat units, develop technologies, manage finite resources, and deploy their forces against a cunning and ruthless terror network. The single player Act of War: Direct Action demo is taken from the game?s sixth mission set in Egypt entitled ?Falling Hawk.?
